Every person’s experience with SUD is unique, though difficult circumstances are often common. We respect and encourage personal expression of these circumstances via artwork as a pathway to healing. However, due to the wide audience Voices will reach via a digital gallery, only those that can appropriately displayed amongst youth will be included. Please avoid overly graphical depictions of drug or alcohol use, sexual or explicit content, and mature language.
This year’s campaign will encourage submissions from community members 16 years old+. Due to the mature subject matter, submissions from younger artists will be accepted when co-sponsored by an adult.
Submissions will be accepted online only. Pieces should be photographed and uploaded, along with a completed form. Please follow the below recommendations:
- Photograph artwork in a well-lit space
- Place artwork in front of a neutral background if possible
- Get close, but leave space around the edge of the artwork in the photo frame
The first 150 eligible submissions will receive a $50 digital gift card that can be used at 100s of online retailers for their efforts.
